Default Western Chicago Suburbs

I am looking for a doctor who specializes in PCOS located somewhere near the western suburbs of chicago. I found a doctor at the University of Chicago hospitals named David Ehrmann who specializes in PCOS and he is actually a part of what they call a "center for polycystic ovary syndrome" but i called my insurance company and he is not covered under my plan. I was extremely disappointed by this news. I am looking for someone who has a lot of expertise with PCOS because my symptoms seem to be getting worse and I really need some help. Does anyone know any good doctors in my area?

I live in the western burbs and drive into the city for my doc. His name is Dr. Edmond Confino, and he's out of Northwestern. I have been seeing him for about 3-4 months. I'm ttc. We tried clomid and injectibles and are now moving to IVF, and I completely trust Dr. Confino. I'm hoping it will work the first try. If you have any questions, I'm happy to answer them.

I am in the Western Suburbs also. I had a RE in Naperville who specialized in PCOS, but she just relocated to Indiana to take a teaching position. I am currently looking also. I have heard of a doc at Northwestern who specializes in PCOS and has published lots of research on the subject. She is Dr. Andrea Dunaif. I am considering trying to get in with her, but it is a big commute and I don't like going to the city by myself. I'm in the Far West Suburbs.

I see Dr. Randy Morris in Naperville. He is really great! I've been seeing him for 3 years just for pcos stuff. We are now ready to concieve and will be doing IVF with him. I highly recommend him, he is so understanding and makes u feel really comfortable. He is very knoweldeable about pcos. PM me if you would like any other information. His web site is http://www.ivf1.com His web site is going under some construction, don't know if it is fully up yet again.
